Can someone pls explain some of the cards that say +1 attack? Does that mean all minion or the hero or spell or combination thereof? Thanks.
It should say if +1 attack to where (hero, friendly minions, all minions or specific minion such as beast and murlocs, and characters which includes hero and minion). Example is Raid Leader. It says +1 to all friendly minions. Or Dire Wolf Alpha, +1 to Adjacent minions (meaning left and right minions get the buff only). There are also mechanics such as ENRAGE. Enrage means the minion is damaged, therefore the effect will trigger. Amani Berserker is a 2/3 with Enrage+3 Attack. If amani is damaged for 1, he will be a 5/2. Warrior's heroic strike is a +4 attack which can only be used by the hero. Shaman's rockbiter weapon is a +3 attack which can be used by hero or minion. Druid's savage roar is a +2 attack to all CHARACTERS, meaning hero and minion. Finally, the +attack can be permanent, which is most of the time, unless noted that for 'this turn only'.
Fun game, but is anyone finding an online match? Since it's only a soft launch I don't expect a huge amount of people online, but I can never seem to find a match :/
Ugh so jealous. I agree with the people who are speculating that it will come out after they show it at PAX. Yeah, when I got in the (Mac) Hearthstone beta it killed my interest in Duels of the Planeswalkers. Ha! I've gotten that in the arena a few times. Definitely catches some people by surprise. On the Mac client I never have to wait more than 30 seconds to find a match.
Thats the same with all characters (on both iPad and PC); every character has an extra 5 cards that you unlock gradually by getting them to level 10. But the cards you get from booster packs (either purchased using IAP or bought with gold in game) come from a different set that doesn't include the 5 you get from levelling up. Also the levels are synced between iPad and PC, so if you get cards or levels on one, then they will be there on the other too.
Hmm... I have a King Crush Legendary (Hunter, 9-cost, 8/8 beast with Charge) but im not sure if it's enough to sway me over into using the hunter fr constructed. Disenchanting it for 400 dust is pretty tempting right now, so im not sure what to do. LOL... making decisions like this is pretty HARD.
You aren't restricted to playing iPad players, you can get matched up against someone on a PC/Mac too, the matchmaking doesn't care. Ive found a match within 5-10 seconds every time, and have challenged/played a friend who was on PC.
I got that yesterday! Its the only legendary I have and I switched to hunter to use it, its awesome so far. Im not going to disenchant anything until Im more familiar with the game, just in case I end up doing something I regret later...
Hearthstone has 10 millions players even before the launch of the iPad version. Still, I find myself playing the same guy, both ranked and unranked at times, so it is VERY questionable still. (do note MMR takes effect here). At one time, my brother and I are playing Arena, same record, and we queued almost together, we ended up getting matched up against each other. So much for the millions of users huh? Sadly, it is one of the worst legendary you can get. But hey! Im sure you can surprise your opponent with it. I really do not recommend DE'ing legs since it is such a waste, only 25% of the worth. Keep it, unless you are about to craft cards that can help you tremendously already (or if you have decided a deck/hero to be your main already).
Man are all legendaries 9 cost to play? Mine kind of sucks because of that, it will be later on in the fight before I can use it.
No, they vary and can be as low as 2, for example: http://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Bloodmage_Thalnos
Decided to disenchant King Krush and all other hunter cards i could. Decided there's no way i can maintain a deck from each of the classes so im sticking to mage, warrior and warlock for now. I've always been a control player in wow tcg and magic, so seeing these classes's strengths and weaknesses i instantly fell in love with their kit. Im sure these classes can be constructed as rush decks too but id play them as control.
Im pretty sure that would end up in my crap legends list. Sorry. I mean at that cost, and 8/8 with an ability that doesnt really affect the game? Sounds like it belongs to MTG's Unglued set. LOL
One of the worst you can get. Sadly. DE it and craft 4 good rares @100 dust each such as Argent Commander, Azure Drake, Defender of Argus. OR Craft 10 neutral commons @40 dust each such as Harvest Golemn, Loot Hoarder. Warlock and Warrior are the top 2 tier. Unfortunately, Warrior is VERY, if not, the most expensive deck to make. Warlock Aggro is very cheap to make and your 400 dust can help you a lot!
